Abortion by the Numbers

And here’s the news today:

·         Fetus # 3,567 was aborted today in New York. It would have been a male, but shortly after its demise, its identifying genitals were harvested for a company’s continuing research on “male characteristics.” The company intends to makes its finding public in about 10 years, by which time Fetus # 3,567 would have reached the age of 10 and been a wonder athlete at fencing. Twenty-five years from now, Fetus # 3,567 would have married and started a peaceful, productive life of its own with three children and a career in botanical gardening.

However, the Determiners decided that Fetus # 3,567’s biological mother was too poor to raise the Fetus properly, and no one else cared much about its future. So it was cut out of its safe space and discarded (except for its valuable genitals).

·         Fetus # 5,240 was also aborted today in Beijing. It was not hard to guess that its “assigned gender” had been female, but it was considered undesirable, so its organs weren’t even harvested.

About twenty years from now, Fetus # 5,240 would have written a book about Jesus Christ that would have touched the heart of the Chinese leader, and radically transformed the direction of that country. In forty years, it would have traveled the globe, touching even the hardest of heart with its God-given message.

However, the Determiners decided that Fetus # 5,240’s parents had exceeded their allotted number of children, so the Fetus was taken by force and left to die (it was a swift death) in a covered trash can. No one – thankfully – heard the infant’s last gasp in darkness and pain.

·         Fetus # 4,210 was aborted today in Oklahoma. The abortionist was late for his golf game, so he pitched the formerly-alive baby into the collection dish and ordered his assistant death-dealer to take the “matter” to the lab immediately. He then left for his game, allowing his assistant to clean up the formerly-pregnant female lying on the table as best she could.

Fetus # 4,210 was rather unique; it would have been the only autistic female child in the state who could flawlessly perform Chopin and Beethoven on the piano by the age of 12.

However, the Determiner – its own mother – was so career-driven that she could not bear the thought of the inconvenience its piano practicing would cause. And so Fetus # 4,210 disappeared into a stainless steel dish and vanished into the “body parts” freezer after being dissected.

·         All of these numbered fetuses would have brought smiles to others at some point in their lives, had they been allowed to breathe air and grow.

·         All of them would have cried for sheer joy at some point in their lives.

·         All of them would have loved someone else at some point in their lives.

·         All of them went back to their Creator with their purpose – to be a human on earth – unfulfilled.

·         All of them woke up in eternity and were comforted by the love of God, instead of the love of a mother and father who had engaged in their procreation.

·         We call them numbers; God calls them Human Beings.
